Looks as if the camera has lost power. Perhaps Adriana will give the dodgy plug a bit of a waggle when she has time.

Plug has been waggled :)

Why do they still make those silly superheavy plugs with spindly little pins? :evil: Our Speedtouch box has a similar arrangement and has to be strategically balanced against the leg of the desk to maintain the connection. :evil: :evil:

Thanks Adriana!

The heavy plugs / spindly pins thing is easily fixed - have three big chunky pins on the heavy plug and a socket to match.

Means moving to the UK though! :P

Try a dab of Blue Tack on the plug - well away from the pins of course

Hmm or I could move back to South Africa where they still use fat three pinned plugs... :P

But it wouldn't help because thanks to cable theft power cuts are rife so the webcam still wouldn't work... :evil:

Cyberspace is ok Kon, but not as good as the real thing, which I'll be able to watch with a "cuppa" myself from Wednesday... :P

I can think of quite a few electricians who put bits of tin foil in the fuse box... :twisted: :o

Wasn't a house on Symi gutted by fire a couple of years ago as the result of an electrical fault?
